Learning is Meaningful

Week 16 - November 27th,  2022

Greetings Conway Families, 

Hope you all had a wonderful week with family and friends. We are ready to jump back into weekly routines and engage students in skills and knowledge rich learning experiences that result in high-quality projects that go beyond the classroom.  

The week before break, Conway had the opportunity to partner again with renowned muralist, Mario Torero but this time it was to co-create a community mural project. Funded by the Escondido Community Foundation, Mario Torero designed an Escondido Community Scene that has been approved by the City of Escondido.  The mural will be installed near Washington Park in Escondido later this year.  Mr. Torero stated, “it would be an honor for us to work with Conway students again because they have that passion, experience and skill in creating artwork with meaning”.  Our student did just that during the week.   Read the full article here - https://conway.eusd.org/o/conway/article/916206

Our kitchen Crew created an extra special week for our students by cooking them a holiday meal.  

We are happy to bring back some of our traditions.  Gratitude Jars were out for studnet and families to write words of gratitude for our Conway Crew.  Stay tuned for a few other traditions coming back this month.  Our annual Cookie Walk returns after three years.  Details coming soon.  

Students did start trimester two and have changed their exploratory rotation.  Make sure to ask your student if they are in STEM, Art, Mindfulness practices, or Library this trimester.  This is very unique to Conway. We are grateful that we can offer this enrichment through our Title 1 funds.  

 We are grateful for the opportunity to inspire students to discover their unlimited potential through Excellence, Perseverance, Integrity, and Compassion.  Together we are creating an EPIC school.  We are in this together and believe, We Are Crew, not passengers.  

In Crew, 

Principal Meglich
